What bearing does this have on the thread?
Kaido not getting what he desires would be Kaido not going out in a blaze of glory. It would be Kaido's death not being as legendary as Oden's, Rogers's or Whitebeard's.
Oden's death has been spoken of for ages to come. It's known as "the Hour of Legends":
Roger's death marked the Dawn of the Great Age of Piracy:
Whitebeard's death reinvigorated said age and marked the end of an era, the era of Whitebeard:
The above are the kinds of death Kaido wants. Kaido being thwarted just means he won't get that glorious death, it doesn't mean he won't die.
